A container for a collection of resources.

The logical id of the resource, as used in the URL for the resource. Once assigned, this value never changes.

The only time that a resource does not have an id is when it is being submitted to the server using a create operation.

The metadata about the resource. This is content that is maintained by the infrastructure. Changes to the content might not always be associated with version changes to the resource.

A reference to a set of rules that were followed when the resource was constructed, and which must be understood when processing the content. Often, this is a reference to an implementation guide that defines the special rules along with other profiles etc.

Asserting this rule set restricts the content to be only understood by a limited set of trading partners. This inherently limits the usefulness of the data in the long term. However, the existing health eco-system is highly fractured, and not yet ready to define, collect, and exchange data in a generally computable sense. Wherever possible, implementers and/or specification writers should avoid using this element. Often, when used, the URL is a reference to an implementation guide that defines these special rules as part of it's narrative along with other profiles, value sets, etc.

The base language in which the resource is written.

Language is provided to support indexing and accessibility (typically, services such as text to speech use the language tag). The html language tag in the narrative applies to the narrative. The language tag on the resource may be used to specify the language of other presentations generated from the data in the resource. Not all the content has to be in the base language. The Resource.language should not be assumed to apply to the narrative automatically. If a language is specified, it should it also be specified on the div element in the html (see rules in HTML5 for information about the relationship between xml:lang and the html lang attribute).

A persistent identifier for the batch that won't change as a batch is copied from server to server.

This value must be the same as the Composition.identifier value as there is only on instance of LIVDCatalogProfile in the bundle. It represents the logical identifier for the publication by the vendor.

Indicates the purpose of this bundle - how it was intended to be used. It can be either a collection or a transaction (may depend on what servers will support).

The bundle represents a collection of resources that make up the LIVD Publication.

The date/time that the bundle was assembled - i.e. when the resources were placed in the bundle.

This element is constrained out as it is more suitable for dynamic query responses than when a publication was created considering that Composition.date already captures that.

If a set of search matches, this is the total number of matches for the search (as opposed to the number of results in this bundle).

Only used if the bundle is a search result set. The total does not include resources such as OperationOutcome and included resources, only the total number of matching resources.

A series of links that provide context to this bundle.

Both Bundle.link and Bundle.entry.link are defined to support providing additional context when Bundles are used (e.g. HATEOAS).

Bundle.entry.link corresponds to links found in the HTTP header if the resource in the entry was read directly.

This specification defines some specific uses of Bundle.link for searching and paging, but no specific uses for Bundle.entry.link, and no defined function in a transaction - the meaning is implementation specific.

Unique id for the element within a resource (for internal references). This may be any string value that does not contain spaces.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension.

There can be no stigma associated with the use of extensions by any application, project, or standard - regardless of the institution or jurisdiction that uses or defines the extensions. The use of extensions is what allows the FHIR specification to retain a core level of simplicity for everyone.

May be used to represent additional information that is not part of the basic definition of the element and that modifies the understanding of the element in which it is contained and/or the understanding of the containing element's descendants. Usually modifier elements provide negation or qualification. To make the use of extensions safe and manageable, there is a strict set of governance applied to the definition and use of extensions. Though any implementer can define an extension, there is a set of requirements that SHALL be met as part of the definition of the extension. Applications processing a resource are required to check for modifier extensions.

Modifier extensions SHALL NOT change the meaning of any elements on Resource or DomainResource (including cannot change the meaning of modifierExtension itself).

Modifier extensions allow for extensions that cannot be safely ignored to be clearly distinguished from the vast majority of extensions which can be safely ignored. This promotes interoperability by eliminating the need for implementers to prohibit the presence of extensions. For further information, see the definition of modifier extensions.

The reference details for the link.

An entry in a bundle resource - will either contain a resource, or information about a resource (transactions and history only).

The bundles must contain exactly one LIVDCatalogProfile instance, at least one LIVDCatalogEntryProfile instance, at least one LIVDDeviceDefinitionProfile instance, at least one LIVDConceptMapProfile instance, and at least one LIVDCodeSystemProfile instance.

A series of links that provide context to this entry.

The Absolute URL for the resource. The fullUrl SHALL not disagree with the id in the resource. The fullUrl is a version independent reference to the resource. The fullUrl element SHALL have a value except that:

• fullUrl can be empty on a POST (although it does not need to when specifying a temporary id for reference in the bundle)
• Results from operations might involve resources that are not identified.

fullUrl may not be unique in the context of a resource. Note that since FHIR resources do not need to be served through the FHIR API, the absolute URL may not end with the logical id of the resource (Resource.id), but if the fullUrl does look like a RESTful server URL (e.g. meets the regex, then it SHALL end with the Resource.id.

Why this entry is in the result set - whether it's included as a match or because of an _include requirement.

There is only one mode. In some corner cases, a resource may be included because it is both a match and an include. In these circumstances, 'match' takes precedence.

When searching, the server's search ranking score for the entry.

Servers are not required to return a ranking score. 1 is most relevant, and 0 is least relevant. Often, search results are sorted by score, but the client may specify a different sort order.

The HTTP verb for this entry in either a change history, or a transaction/ transaction response.

The URL for this entry, relative to the root (the address to which the request is posted).

E.g. for a Patient Create, the method would be "POST" and the URL would be "Patient". For a Patient Update, the method would be PUT, and the URL would be "Patient/[id]".

If the ETag values match, return a 304 Not Modified status. See the API documentation for "Conditional Read".

Only perform the operation if the last updated date matches. See the API documentation for "Conditional Read".

Only perform the operation if the Etag value matches. For more information, see the API section "Managing Resource Contention".

Instruct the server not to perform the create if a specified resource already exists. For further information, see the API documentation for "Conditional Create". This is just the query portion of the URL - what follows the "?" (not including the "?").

The status code returned by processing this entry. The status SHALL start with a 3 digit HTTP code (e.g. 404) and may contain the standard HTTP description associated with the status code.

The location header created by processing this operation.

The etag for the resource, it the operation for the entry produced a versioned resource (see Resource Metadata and Versioning and Managing Resource Contention).

Etags match the Resource.meta.versionId. The ETag has to match the version id in the header if a resource is included.

The date/time that the resource was modified on the server.

This has to match the same time in the meta header if a resource is included.

An OperationOutcome containing hints and warnings produced as part of processing this entry in a batch or transaction.

For a POST/PUT operation, this is the equivalent outcome that would be returned for prefer = operationoutcome - except that the resource is always returned whether or not the outcome is returned.

Digital Signature - base64 encoded. XML-DSIg or a JWT.

This element allows capturing signatures on documents. It also allows signatures on messages, transactions or even query responses. It may support content-authentication, non-repudiation or other business cases. This is primarily relevant where the bundle may travel through multiple hops or via other mechanisms where HTTPS non-repudiation is insufficient.

The signature could be created by the "author" of the bundle or by the originating device. Requirements around inclusion of a signature, verification of signatures and treatment of signed/non-signed bundles is implementation-environment specific.
